I'm just absolutely insane about android's sensors, I want to dissect them and understand how they process data, what kind of sensor do they have. I can guess, yes, but I want to know. Zlatvko pipeline

i relate to my '08 camry on a spiritual level cause i too am constantly on the verge of a breakdown :)

The second I plugged in my headphones and heard his voice I was like. I Know You. Who Are You.

hello again Mr Lowenthal…

Okay... bunch of lore dropping - fast forwards the tape until Io and Collin are married with a little family... thought about them having a "mom van" back on Giya Io named the "Mothership"!

cough not a dance gavin dance reference cough cough word just cant exist on its own no

God Bless!

ARGH Very happy to share their other kiddo, Orchid!! (and the secret third baby) Orchid's like... shy, intuitive...sensitive (complete opposite of his sister lol) and!!!! ALSO!!! MARSTHA!!! Io's very own spacepup buddy!

Dropping this in... I added this song to their playlist due to this one idea that... much to Collin's dismay (so don't tell him) Io and Little Peony sing song this song together during their little drives...

quirky 14 year old mbticels typing their families like:

dad: xstj cuz he MEAN AND BORING UGH!!! old man doesnt UNDERSTAND ME. 😡

mom: xsfj cuz nice :) still very boring an normie unfortunately (get well soon)

younger sibling: esxp/enfp cuz soooo louuudd and hyper🙄🙄

me: intj/intp/entp/infp swag big brain ethereal being because im deep. no one gets me. im just too intuitive and intelligent for these people. they just dont get it. ugh

family dog: estp i guess. runs around a lot lol😂

Sensors that monitor infrastructure, such as bridges or buildings, or are used in medical devices, such as prostheses for the deaf, require a constant supply of power. The energy for this usually comes from batteries, which are replaced as soon as they are empty. This creates a huge waste problem. An EU study forecasts that in 2025, 78 million batteries will end up in the rubbish every day. A new type of mechanical sensor, developed by researchers led by Marc Serra-​Garcia and ETH geophysics professor Johan Robertsson, could now provide a remedy. Its creators have already applied for a patent for their invention and have now presented the principle in the journal Advanced Functional Materials.

Watching John Carpenter's The Thing for probably the 100th time at this point I just realized that the head spider about an hour and seventeen minutes in sounds somewhat like a goddamn minecraft sculk sensor and I can't unhear it and now you all have to deal with it too

Like it's not identical but they sound similar af

Which makes it even more ironic to me considering the Thing mimics things WHY HAS THE THING PLAYED MINECRAFT HOW DID IT GET MINECRAFT 💀

A pass, huh? Sometimes, maybe -- and really, that alone is testament to Seventeen's sense of mercy. After all, Picc does make an awfully cute face when he's thinking hard...

Thinking about image model generated art and gifmaking is giving me some weird vibrations about how there really is some weird association of the virtuesvirtues of a medium with the virtues of the people working in it. Gifmaking being associated with KPop fans doesn't make the concept of frame interpolation racist, and someone marketing themselves as a cheaper alternative to some other artist doesn't make the concept of generative art inherently class antagonistic.

It's somehow reminiscent of CJ the X's distinction between "stupid art" and "evil art", how a medium that has a low skill floor can produce things that are very stupid and easy to perceive as low-effort but how that's not the same as them having something wrong with them. If you look at my animation tag, most of it is motion graphics done with AfterEffects, and while it's probably wrong to call it a low skill floor program the way an AI art generator is... there is still a world where instead of programmatically telling shapes to whizz by on a screen, a different Van would have drawn those same animations frame by frame, producing exactly the same animation.

And I don't think the fact that I did them programmatically somehow invalidates the artistic intent that went into them, y'know? I could open AE right now and produce a 250x250 looping gif of clouds and while I know how to do that quick, to make it look good and to make me like it, I would have to spend time considering how the various elements, colours, timings and whatever the particle system/noise generator I use spits out fit together. I would have to fiddle with seeds and levels and timings to make it look good. I would have to spend a long time just staring and thinking about what I'm making before I could make it good.

I don't know enough about generative art tools to know how much fiddling goes into them once they're taught and ready to go, but I do know enough about deep learning to know it's a haphazard, frustrating process that you as the artist have only limited control over, which is why it doesn't appeal to me. But I have made gifs in the past, and I know how that process requires an eye for consistency and composition, framing and colour that a lot of other visual artists don't have because they're not working with time as one of the creative dimensions.

And like... who am I, from my high horse as someone in possession of these skills, to tell someone who is still developing these skills or who has a different aesthetic concept of what is good than me, what they're making is low-effort. That's not my judgement to make. I didn't make it. Only the artist themselves can say if somehing was low-effort or not. I don't see why I should have so little faith in other artists to assume they have no interest in putting in any effort.

AH I REMEMBERED WHAT I WAS GONNA SAY EARLIER but it's kind of stupid, lmao.

So my partner is getting into brewing beer and I got them a Tilt, which is a Bluetooth hydrometer. It measures specific gravity and temperature, which are things you want to know so that you don't kill your yeast or whatever. Except the sensor's Bluetooth range is super short, and it basically runs via a phone app, and the temperature we're logging currently is the crawlspace, accessible via the staircase closet. So they were like, wait, what do we do about this, because I can't leave my phone in the closet, that's my alarm clock.

In a kind of ridiculous turn of life imitating art, I was like, hold up, I got just the thing right at my desk. Bam. Old phone. We just needed to scrounge up a charger because the battery is so dead that after charging just enough to power on it claimed it was at 53% (to be fair to it, there is a very real chance that it's correct, and it just holds no charge at this point so the capacity is just THAT low) and now it lives in the closet logging sensor data.

And I was like, you know...didn't I just solve a major story detail with a much larger version of this...yeah, no, this is all vaguely familiar somehow, power supply issues and all. Kind of cool that the concept works though. Kind of weird that it came up at all?

We are not gonna talk about the fact that I still have at least two more ancient-ass phones in a drawer where that came from because look, man, sometimes you just need a camera/mic/mini computer with Bluetooth and wifi that fits in a pocket, and people just get rid of these things, but not me. I actually could build a shitty security system out of them if I was reaaaally inclined. I mean. I'm not. But it's technically possible.

For real though, If I pick up any stupid maker projects I still high-key am thinking about slapping Bluetooth into a necomimi headset and running that through an Arduino and learning to code just enough to let me skip songs/change the volume on Spotify with my brain, because it's entirely doable, and I mean yeah I could do that on my phone remotely too, but that's not funny, now, is it. I'm just not sure it's $350+ of parts funny. Kind of a big investment just to prove the point that haha look I am the extremely ADHD type of lazy where I would rather solve a problem via the most convoluted and complicated Rube-Goldberg type ass machine way possible rather than just perform a single simple action.

YEAH I'VE BEEN THIS SCATTERED ALL DAY AND I REALLY SHOULD GO TO BED SHOULDN'T I. I started playing Satisfactory. Mistakes were made. I'm going to dream about conveyor belts again and I did it to myself...

#is it the scientists had bias and set the keyboard to make the most mushroom sounding music alive#or is it innate mushroom music

The mushroom produces an electrical signal across one of three sensors, the placement of which has been decided by a human. Also it doesn't appear that the signals get interpreted beyond a binary 'on or off'. That is the full extent of the mushroom's creative input. It did not choose the pitches to play, or the synth patch with which to play them. If those three different pulses would instead be hooked up to a drum machine nobody would buy it as being mushroom music.

But yeah, this is definitely mushroom music.
